Fearing was selected Hometeam Player of the Year after she capped a brilliant career for Marlboro by helping the Panthers to the Division 2 state title and a 25-0 record. Fearing was named Mid-Wach A MVP and was a first-team selection to the Division 2 All-State All-Star team by the Massachusetts Girls' Volleyball Coaches Association. Fearing led the state with 690 assists, averaging 9.5 per set for Marlboro coach Peter Lepore. Fearing is a two-time league and All-State selection and is a standout track athlete, qualifying for the Central Mass. Championships in the javelin the last three seasons. Fearing is undecided on her college plans, but hopes to major in biology. Athletic ability runs in the Fearing family, as her sister Alexa is also a T&G Super Team choice, while her mother Audrey was a standout volleyball player and coach at Assumption. Her uncle is former NHL player Scott Young. Her most memorable moment this year was winning the state title, but what made it even better for Fearing was the fact the Panthers felt like opponents were looking past them, so the win allowed her and her teammates “to show everyone our capabilities,” Fearing said. She is the daughter of Audrey and Thomas Fearing of Marlboro.
